Listening to "Innerspace" again.
I caved in and went for this title, but it looks like I'll have to wait until 2010 to hear it.
Shipped from SAE on the 17th, most of my packages get delivered to work and unless it arrives later today I'm going to miss it (along with Freud) - I'm not back in work until the 4th January.The views expressed in this post are entirely my own and do not reflect the opinions of maintitles.net, or for that matter, anyone else. http://www.racksandtags.com/falkirkbairn -

Agreed, The Missing is the one Horner score I bought because it got good reviews, by Clemmensen in fact, I listened to it a few times, and sold it sometime later. The score was so unoriginal and ordinary I honestly didn't see why I should keep it any longer. My mind was already made up I'd never listen to it much (or at all).
Then you've missed out one fine score! I think the album suffers from being far too long since there's a lot of material there that just isn't needed. But if you edit it down to about 40-45 minutes of all the highlights, it makes for a very worthy listen.
Honestly, I've never had the feeling a Horner album could drag endlessly but this one did. At half the length, like you stated, it would've been more bearable."considering I've seen an enormous debate here about The Amazing Spider-Man and the ones who love it, and the ones who hate it, I feel myself obliged to say: TASTE DIFFERS, DEAL WITH IT" - Thomas G. -

Is that one of those stupid region-only releases? I can't find it on the iTunes store.
Oh wait, Silva Screen... *duh*. -

Ah, never mind. I think I'll just wait for the CD. Gordon is one of the few composers who I'd buy the CD first without having listened to the music! -

Moonfleet - Miklos Rozsa
December to me is Rozsa time (probably because most stations tend to show the great biblical/Christ-themed epics around this time, 90% of which used to be scored by Rozsa ). Moonfleet, as far as I can make out, is some pirate/smuggler related historical caper. It carries a minor effort from Rozsa for a minor film, yet he gets that very first hook in with his main titles every single time.
Grand theme and a few subthemes (as well as some period dance music) makes this one a worthwhile listen, if not on the scale of the likes of Ben Hur or King Of Kings.
It's really very easy: if you like Rozsa, you'll definitely like this score.
If you don't, it's not a classic (even though, as said, the main theme is lovely and very worthy of being included into any Rozsa compilation).'no passion nor excitement here, despite all the notes and musicians' ~ Falkirkbairn -

Gordon is one of rare composers ( outside of Barry and a few others ) where I'll take the chance on an 'unheard' buy and he hasn't disappointed me yet.
I'm waiting for the CD too.On Friday I ate a lot of dust and appeared orange near the end of the day ~ Bregt -

I ordered it from Silva Screen after all that. Seems Amazon aren't releasing it until a bit later, plus it's cheaper at Silva!
I'm looking forward to what is hopefully an unrelenting and dark Gordon score. -

Well he did it a couple of times after that one (The New World, The Forgotten for instance) but up until then (2003?) it was the first ever Horner I sold because of how the score on album did nothing, nada, zip to me."considering I've seen an enormous debate here about The Amazing Spider-Man and the ones who love it, and the ones who hate it, I feel myself obliged to say: TASTE DIFFERS, DEAL WITH IT" - Thomas G. -

I don't know what it is, but Christmas scores just irritate me if I try and listen to them over the holiday period. I think it's because I feel I'm "forcing" myself to listen to them because they feel (or I at least think they feel) appropriate.
So, without furthar a do...

NP Celda 211 (Cell 211) (Roque Baños)
Baños´darkest score so far. Strings, percussion (credited as Neopercussion ), piano and synth (programmed by Baños himself) for a 36 minute album, showing the composer´s more experimental side. Not memorable; still, interesting.Anything with an orchestra or with a choir....at some point will reach you -

NP: 'Daybreak' ... DAYBREAKERS
One of the best end credit suites in a long time. It's not as long as it was originally - part of the suite of themes it tours through now appears as the start of the penultimate cue 'Spreading the Cure'. So it's not quite the 9 minute tour de force I heard back in 2008, but it is an exceptional piece nonetheless.A butterfly thinks therefore I am
